Title: soft bicep
Post by: wannaclimb8a on April 23, 2006, 10:31:14 pm: was out climbing the other morning and have strained my right bicep.doesnt hurt as such but when i tense it up fully it feels soft whereas its usually rock hard.its it just a bit of a strain or is it likely to be a tear?im having atleast a week of climbing now to let my skin fully recover but wondering if my bicep will be back to normal in a week.

my right bicep feels soft whereas its usually a soft cheeselike consistency...
if its muscular it should be ok in a couple of days, stop waving your willy for that time and it'll probably be ok.

I would recomend a week off climbing to recover personally 8)
